The daily life of Mrs. Xing of the Red Chamber

When Daiyu was still in the Rongguo Mansion, Lin Ruhai mentioned this matter a little in the letter to Daiyu.However, at that time, Xing Shuang's attention was all on Lin Ruhai, thinking about making Lin Ruhai go through, she forgot about it.Daiyu probably remembered that she was the only girl, how could she have the nerve to mention it to Xing Shuang?That's why it was ignored.

So, whose son is Lin Ruhai looking for in Daiyu?But it was the youngest son of Lin Ruhai's former classmate and old friend's family. His name was Shen Yan, and he was two years older than Daiyu.In Lin Ruhai's case, Shen Yan had several considerations.

First, the Shen family is a truly scholarly and noble family, and has always established the world with a clean family style.This kind of family, whether it is because of their true character or because of the words of the outside world, they cherish their feathers very much, and they will definitely not do things such as greedy for the dowry of ink women, or bullying orphans.

Second, the Shen family is a big family with a thriving population, mutual support, and excellent career development.Not to mention the cousins ​​in the next room, among the three households of the Shen family alone, Shen Yan's eldest brother has been a Jinshi a few years ago, and has a bright future.There is an excellent eldest son, but it doesn't mean that Shen Yan supports the family and shines on the family.In this way, there would be no pressure on Shen Yan, and it would be much easier to be his daughter-in-law.

To be honest, if Lin Ruhai and Shen Yan's father, Shen Ding, were not classmates and old friends, Daiyu might not be able to marry into the Shen family.After all, the Shen family only had a rule of "you can take a concubine only if you have no sons in your [-]s", so many people who love their daughters are very excited, and they have been staring at the unmarried sons of the Shen family for a long time.This family rule of the Shen family is also the one thing Master Lin Ruhai likes the most.Men inevitably have such thoughts, no matter how they are, they always hope that their daughters will be treated well by others.It just so happened that Shen Ding was his classmate and friend, even for his own sake, if Daiyu did not do well, he could still be tolerant to Daiyu.

Thirdly, Shen Yan himself is good enough.He has already spoken well at a young age.Three years ago, when Shen Ding took his wife and children to Suzhou to take office three years ago, when Lin Ruhai saw Shen Yan for the first time, he felt that this son was generous and personable, so he couldn't help thinking about it.Asked a few words casually, it might as well be that Shen Yan is a studious person at such a young age, and he was able to answer fluently.Lin Ruhai loved this boy very much in his heart, and kept praising him with his friends, but he couldn't help feeling a little regretful in his heart.If Lin Ruhai also had a son, he would definitely raise and raise him well, and he would definitely not lose to Shen Yan!

Do you have regrets in your heart, Lin Ruhai kept this young man Shen Yan in his heart.Later, knowing Baoyu's inappropriate behavior and the Jia's mistreatment of Daiyu, Lin Ruhai naturally gave up the idea of ​​marrying Daiyu to the Rongguo Mansion.Then, he couldn't help but think of Shen Yan, and immediately wrote a letter to his friend, chatting privately about the idea that the two families could become in-laws.

It was also thanks to Shen Ding's flamboyant temperament that Lin Ruhai had often received letters from Suzhou in the past two years, so he naturally knew that Shen Yan had achieved success at a young age, had been admitted to the maternity school early, and was quite famous in Suzhou.After a few years of accumulation and precipitation, the future will be bright.This is what made Lin Ruhai think about it!

It just so happened that Shen Ding's three-year term as the prefect of Suzhou had expired, and he was taking his wife, children, family, and family back to Beijing to report on his duties.Lin Ruhai wrote a copy of the book and gave it to a friend, asking him to stop and see each other when passing through Yangzhou on the way back to Beijing.In fact, they both know each other well, which means that the children of the two families look at each other.

Since it was meant to meet each other, Shen Ding's family would not come to the door in a hurry when they arrived in Yangzhou.Shen Ding asked someone to buy a house in Yangzhou, settled down for a while, and only waited a few days before he was ready before visiting.

However, Lin Ruhai stopped the Eldest Master and Xing Shuang from leaving twice a year and a year after another, because he had already thought about it.Daiyu's biological mother had passed away, and she did not remarry. The only female relatives in the mansion were only aunts, who could not be on the stage, and it was absolutely impossible to treat guests in a serious manner.It's just that I need to invite the Shen family to visit.You can't say to Shen Ding, "As long as your father and son come to the door, don't bring your wife"?

If Xing Shuang was not around, Lin Ruhai might ask the wife of a colleague he had a good relationship with to come and help with the cooking for a day.Isn't it just that Xing Shuang came to Yangzhou? In comparison, Xing Shuang is obviously more suitable. Naturally, Lin Ruhai still wants Xing Shuang to help receive Mrs. Shen's family.The most I can do is to examine Shen Yan's behavior carefully. If Daiyu really promises to Shen Yan, there will be a mother Shen who will often deal with people in the future.Invite Shen's mother together, or ask Xing Shuang to help him see how he is, is he easy to get along with?

It has to be said that when Jia Min, the mother, passed away, Lin Ruhai's worries about Daiyu were really gone.Now, Lin Ruhai is even worried about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.It is also dumbfounding.

Knowing that Lin Ruhai reserved herself for Daiyu's marriage, Xing Shuang naturally agreed without saying a word.Daiyu has been by her side for so long, although she is not a daughter by blood, she is no different emotionally. "Daughter-in-law" is going to Xu others, and Xing Shuang is not short-hearted, so she has to stay and help Zhang Luo Zhang Luo's long-term eyes!

readily agreed.

Now that she agrees, Xing Shuang won't leave, she will stay in Lin's mansion and wait for the Shen family to visit.Before Shen's family came to visit, they waited for the Lantern Festival.

Yangzhou's Lantern Festival is notoriously lively, and it's rare to see it now, so Xing Shuang was naturally very excited.However, there are definitely many people at the lantern festival, and Xing Shuang originally wanted to take the children out to watch the lantern festival.Because he was worried that the crowd at the Lantern Festival would be too crowded, he withdrew and simply stayed at home with his son.

Unexpectedly, the old man is getting more and more popular now, and he quietly prepared a surprise, and booked a seat at the Yuelu Tower in Yangzhou.That's a good place, located in the middle of the downtown area, and well built.If it feels too crowded, sit in the box, the five-storey building has an excellent view, and you can have a panoramic view of most of the bustle below.However, such a place is so good, it is conceivable that it is hard to find a seat at the Yuelu Tower in the Lantern Festival every year.

It's still a good place for the Elder Master to book a seat in advance, I'm afraid he's borrowing Lin Ruhai's prestige again.Xing Shuang knew about it and didn't say anything about the old man.Having already booked a seat, Xing Shuang reluctantly agreed to go out with the old man, she never admitted that she wanted to go out for a while.

So Xing Shuang went to the inner room to change clothes.Going out to play, of course you have to dress nicely.Usually Xing Shuang stays in the mansion all the time, usually wearing homely clothes, and her eyes are not too bright.I'm going out to watch the lanterns tonight, so it's rare for me to think about dressing up. As soon as I came out after changing clothes, the old man's eyes looked straight.

On Xing Shuang's upper body is a rose-red silk gold silk make-up jacket, embroidered with the pattern of Wanzi Liuyun, with a peony tape inlaid on the skirt, and a pair of gold silk double-breasted outer jacket on the outer cover, tied with a gold hundred butterfly wearing peach red cloud satin skirt.The whole person is much more beautiful and delicate.Another simple bun with a jasper hairpin, Xing Shuang's skin is fair and tender, dressed up like this, she looks like she is only in her early twenties, standing with the old man, some people believe that they are father and daughter.

The Elder looked at Xing Shuang and smiled happily.Complacent and proud.Tell yourself in your heart that you have to seize the opportunity when the two of you go out together later.However, when the Elder Master saw that Xing Shuang was going to bring Brother Luo together, the Elder Master's face suddenly became unnatural and twitched.Then, hesitantly said: "No, I think we should keep our son in the mansion?"

Xing Shuang hugged Brother Luo, looked at the old man for a long time before saying: "You don't plan to take care of the child, right? You don't usually love him the most? Now is the time to test your true father-son relationship." Xing Shuang finished speaking He turned to tease his son again.

"No, there are so many people outside, what should I do if I scare my brother? Besides, it's not safe to take the child out on such a day! But there are people who specifically pick this kind of time to steal children while others don't want to!"

As soon as Xing Shuang heard the old man's words, she thought of the girl named Xiangling next to Baochai, and for a moment she didn't dare to take her brother out to watch the lamp together.Seeing that he had successfully bluffed Xing Shuang, the elder was overjoyed, and silently apologized to his son in his heart. "I'm sorry dear son, your father and I didn't do it on purpose. I stare at you every day. I also want to go out with your mother for romance and have a vacation! Just because I love you so much, Today you also feel sorry for your old man!"

After quietly apologizing to his son, the elder took Xing Shuang's hand and went out, but when he saw Daiyu dressed as a man at the door, the elder had a bad intuition.Then, the elder pretended he didn't see him or didn't know him, and took Xing Shuang's hand and walked out, trying to sneak out quickly.

It's just that it's all at the door, how can it be that simple?

"Uncle, I—Daiyu—I've changed my clothes, why don't you recognize me?" Young Master Daiyu walked around freely in front of Xing Shuang and the Eldest Master, changed into men's clothes, With his hair tied up and a folding fan in his hand, apart from his petite stature, he really looks like a handsome young man.

Xing Shuang took up the conversation: "Yes, yes, it's really good. Yu'er looks even better than that serious young man after changing her clothes! After going out tonight, I don't know how many little girls will be charmed? "It turned out that Daiyu, who Xing Shuang asked someone to invite before changing clothes, went out to play together.Because girls are not good at showing their faces, that's why she specially changed into men's clothes.

Since Daiyu's arrival, the elder's stiff expression has not changed.Hearing Daiyu calling him, the Elder just felt a twitching pain in his head, brat, why don't you know how to go to a farther place to play?

It's just that I borrowed something from Lin Ruhai to get the seat of my private room, so I can stop my son, so do I have the face to stop Daiyu?

The old man looked at Xing Shuang eagerly, then tugged at Xing Shuang's sleeve, and motioned for Xing Shuang to ask Daiyu to play by herself.He still expected to live a two-person world with Xing Shuang!

Originally, it was Daiyu who Xing Shuang told people to call, how could Xing Shuang listen to the elder?Besides, what fun are there for two people?Only when there are many people is it lively!Xing Shuang took Daiyu to the front, and the Elder followed behind, seeing the Elder's expectant eyes gradually dimming...

Bear boy, bear boy, bear boy...
